Baruch Dayan Emet (Praised be the Judge of Truth)
 
It is with great sadness that I share with the congregation news of the  passing on Monday of Rosalie Koester, beloved mother of Mike Koester, mother in law of Ilene, and grandmother of Sophie and Jacob.

The funeral will be at Mt. Golda Cemetery in Huntington NY @ 12:00 on Wednesday, December 12. Shiva will be observed at my mother's house, 229B Heritage Village, Southbury, CT on Wednesday from 4:30-8:30. Shiva will also be observed at Mike and Ilene's house, 10 Saxon Ct, Stamford on Thursday from 2:00 - 9:00. Minyan at  7:00 both nights.
 
She was pre-deceased by her husband, Allan and is also survived by her son, Mark & Michelle Mang, and their children, Paulina & Francisco, and her brother, Michael Schwartz. 

May the mourners be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
